Sorry, Shar, I stepped away for some lunch.
Don't give up on Simba. I had a cat that disappeared for 6 months, then shortly before she reappeared there was a strange cat that started showing up in front of my house in the morning, just sitting there staring at the house. I'd talk to it, and it never came to me and never came up on the steps. Just every morning for about 2 months, it would be in the same spot each morning and then it would leave. Then one day the strange cat didn't show up & the day after that, my missing cat showed up...a little worse for wear, thinner with bird-shot in her side (which the Vet said would be better left alone). She never disappeared again - and lived to a ripe old, old age. I loved her very much. I love all my critters!
I've got some work to do, so I'm gonna log off for awhile & be back later. I'll look for all your wonderful pics & do-dads...you are so talented. 
...chat later
